Question 2

What is the difference between Biotin IM and Biotin IV?

Accepted Answer

Biotin IM (intramuscular) and Biotin IV (intravenous) refer to two different methods of administering Biotin. 
Biotin IM involves getting Biotin injected directly into the muscle tissue either in the upper forearm or your glute. This injection is typically given in the form of a shot and the Biotin is gradually absorbed by the bloodstream through the muscle. 
Biotin IV is a method that involves administering Biotin directly into the bloodstream through the vein and goes directly into the circulatory system. Although Biotin IM and Biotin IV share the same benefits, Biotin IV is more effective as it is 100% bioavailable.
